Full text:

This site is unsuitable for very simple reasons:
Both Rectory Lane and The Rosery are, in parts, wide enough for one vehicle only. There is frequently a backlog of traffic sitting in Rectory Lane, waiting for traffic to pass from the other direction. This is exacerbated at school pick up and drop off times, where a large volume of vehicles park along Rectory Lane.
A development of this size is completely contrary to the approved and adopted Neighbourhood Plan.
With one large development currently taking place in the village and another potentially going ahead, the infrastructure simply cannot cope - doctors, school and roads are all struggling to cope.
